peralta

Project Status: WIP – Initial development is in progress, but there has not yet been a stable, usable release suitable for the public.

Overview

peralta is an R package to detect if new datasets have been published to a web page. Define a list of suspects (URL's) you would like to track and then peralta informs you if there have been any updates. Don't let the data get away!

Installation

You can install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("humaniverse/peralta")

Design philosophy

Rather than create a new calss of objects (e.g., using R6/R7), peralta was designed to take advantage of the existing R data.frame class. This allows the user to interact with data created by this package using tools already in their arsenal.

Alternatives

Python:
